Hello, I am Cyril, and I am eager to share Prince Edward Island (PEI), Canada, with you! As a native Prince Edward Islander, I can't wait to start each day showing others "from away" the features that make our island so quaint and unique. From the tiny fishing villages to historic downtown Charlottetown; from the sandy beaches of the national and provincial parks to the hidden coves in the rural settings; from the fishing boats of actual lobster fishermen to the fields of local farmers; I can create tours for every interest. My background is varied. I started work on my father's lobster boat, owned and operated a landscaping company, worked as a concrete finisher on high rise buildings (not on PEI), and had my own fishing fleet back in PEI fishing crab, lobster, and tuna. After selling my fleet, I worked as a carpenter in Alberta but couldn't resist the draw of PEI once again. After coming back home, I worked as a foreman for a fencing company, then started to drive a taxi part time where I discovered the opportunity to show others of my love for the island through tours. I offer a variety of standard tours around Prince Edward Island, along with custom tours designed to meet your interests. My tours are limited to 6 guests, but if given notice, I can make other arrangements for larger groups. Some quotes from previous clients "This guy was a riot! HE knows everything about PEI, drove extremely safe, had us laughing all the time, and kept talking with interesting bits of information about the island and the entire region. " "From the moment we began our tour, we laughed and took in every site recommended, by Cyril. This day was so loved by each of my children (16, 14, 11, & 8). With previous experiences, I rated Cyril among the best of guides. He brings his love and heritage to life, at any age, for any amount of time you choose. Believe me, if you are visiting PEI, he should be your first call. " "My partner and I needed to take a cab to the Halifax airport from Charlottetown, PEI, and Cyril managed to transform what should have been a long, boring, and simple cab ride, into one of the most positive and memorable moments of our trip. He is by far the most passionate, captivating, and entertaining person that I have had the pleasure of meeting. " My slogan "You're in for a ride", is meant to convey my passion for giving tours, sharing my love of PEI through story telling and having fun while doing so. I look forward to meeting you for your private tour of our "gentle island". Class 1A, 4 and 5 driver's licence (large trucks and up to 15 passenger vehicles).

    Great tour with Cyril. We told him to take us to wherever he thinks we need to see and he did. The island was beautiful and he was very knowledgeable about the island and the places he took us.

    Cyril was amazing! The only way to really see a site is tgrough the eyes of a local! Cyril thank you for spending the day with us and sharing your stories! I feel we sailed away having made a friend and with a greater understanding of Prince Edward Island and its heritage in a way that goes so far beyond the mythical stories! If you have a chance to visit PEI ask Cyril...

    Cyril has deep PEI roots & can customize your tour. He’ll share local color & historical commentary at every turn. We asked questions. He asked questions. Every question was answered, frequently with a personal anecdote. He's a good communicator, fun, & informative. We spoke & texted months before our tour. Cyril gave us good detail on our meet-up spot & it was greatly...

    "Unbelievable" is all i want to say. Margaret that by far is the most incredible review I've ever gotten. In 18 years of being a tour guide, and doing what I truly love. You've made it easier for me, to go do it all again another day. With passengers like yourself, why would I ever want to do it differently. Thank you very much for the 5 star review. And your words...
